Postmatch editorial

The prices said close and the pitch agreed

The final score was VfL Wolfsburg 0-0 Kaiserslautern. The draw was not the loudest pre-match angle, but the game never fully escaped its balance.

Neither VfL Wolfsburg nor Kaiserslautern found a breakthrough, so the game stayed goalless all the way through.

The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: VfL Wolfsburg led Total shots 19-8, even though the scoreboard went another way. VfL Wolfsburg also shaded Corners 9-2.

Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made VfL Wolfsburg the favourite at 63.7% implied probability. That market lean missed.
